Control system EXCITING
Intuitive, simple, and always precise – the ideal partner for your fatigue strength testing!
- Universally applicable
- Extremely user friendly
- Customizable to different test rig configurations
- Low energy consumption
- High control precision
- Very low maintenance demands
- Extensions include, e.g.:
- Climate replication
- Can also be used to modernize your existing test system
The EXCITING control system is an electromotive or electromagnetic digital system mating cutting edge electronics with our EMOTION software which manages the control and guidance of resonance test systems.
The modular construction of the device follows VDE-guidelines. The control unit has a CE certification and satisfies the operating regulations of a number of German automakers.
Control software EMOTION
Simple and intuitive testing software for resonance testing machines
- Intuitive and simple user interface
- All resonance test rigs can be operated and controlled through the user interface
- The basic version offers all functions necessary to the operation of a resonance testing machine
- Varied signal display options
- Formula based signal conversions
- Custom menu of extension modules
Our EMOTION software package is the user interface for our control system. It operates on the NT-based, Microsoft WINDOWS® 10 Pro 64bit operating system.
EMOTION’s base variant includes all functions necessary for the operation of test rigs with a measurement and control channel. With a vast menu of extension modules, the software can be customized to meet your demands.
